It doesn't feel like a wedding morning.Infact, Hazel is not even sure what a wedding morning is supposed to feel like. She sits up in her bed with her face leaning on her palm as she stared out the window, she had gone to bed pretty late yes, but she had still managed to find herself awake at seven am. Perhaps that could be blamed on her internal alarm clock, which usually would wake her no later than six am if she had gone to bed a little earlier the night prior. She turned to her left where Anna was still snoring softly, completely immersed in whatever dream was causing that shadow of a smile on her face.What was to happen now?Hazel thought to herself. When she pictured a wedding morning, she has pictured it would be something abuzz and full of rigourous running around to make everything perfect, just like it had been when they were making arrangements for Alva's engagement. Right now, she wasn't even sure what kind of wedding was going to take place. She had played no part in

Hazel reached out carefully for the tray, grabbing a waffle, she begun to eat quietly, solemnly.The maids filtered in the bathroom to prepare a bath for her.They filled the bathtub with water and readied it with bubbles, some milk and soothing fragrance oils. "My lady, the bath is ready, you have to eat a bit quickly." One of the maids said to Hazel, bowing her head lightly.She nodded her head firmly, swallowing her food as she stood from the bed. "it's fine, I think I am done eating."She could barely muster an appetite at this point even.She reached for her the edge of her dress to take her clothes off. "Let us help you my lady." One of the maids said. "No it's okay" she protested with a weak smile, "I will shower by myself.""But my lady, you know we cannot allow you do that, especially not today." The one who seemed to be in lead stepped forward sternly, disagreeing firmly."I can shower by myself, it is not a problem, you have already done enough by running me a bath." Haze

Luke shut his eyes tightly, pinching the bridge of his nose. "Fuck..." He breathed, "Luca is gonna be so upset.""Hazel why do you need to see her first?" Anna asked, worried "you are delaying the wedding." Hazel shook her head firmly, tears welling up in her eyes as she continued to breathe hysterically. "I just do.""What's going on?"They turned to see Luca standing by the car, brows furrowed in worry. He was fully dressed in his ash colored suit, hair perfectly cut and beard trimmed perfectly. He was definetly look an extra bit handsome today.Luke turned to him, rubbing his forehead "she is insisting she sees her grandmother first, there is no time."Luca walked closer, moving the car door out of the way to look at her. She sat hyperventilating in the car, gripping the edges of her gown and her eyes shut tightly.He leaned forward, "Hazel... Are you okay?" He breathed, his voice low, concerned. She shook her head, eyes still closed. He reached for her hand, grasping it in his

Not too many people were invited to the reception. The music was playing softly and everyone was smiling, going from one corner to the other exchanging greetings and presenting their good wishes and gifts to the couple. Luke was seating in the midst of the crowd. It was an indoor reception, done under a very big beautiful canopy of flowers and decorative lights. The evening air was cool, the bride and the groom stood in front, smiling animatedly with their arms intertwined, putting on a perfect show for the guests.Lucinda crept up upon Luke like a vine, placing her hands on the back of his chair and proding her head into his face. "Luca didn't invite our parents." She murmured in dismay.Luke shrugged, crossing his legs and sipping from the cocktail in his hand. "They could have come themselves if they wanted to, I am sure they saw the announcement all over the news." He implied.Lucinda scoffed, leaning away and crossing her arms. "Come to a wedding uninvited? If he wanted them

Hazel sat in the room, breathing slowly. The lights have been turned off and the room dimly and intentionally lit by candlesticks. An alluring fragrance filled the air, it caressed her nostrils and made her insides curl. The bed was perfectly and neatly made, and a few roses sprinkled on the floor.Whose attempt at making this a romantic wedding night was this?She clasped her fingers together, breathing rapidly as she stared down at the bed beneath her. A romantic wedding night. Would Luca be here soon? Would he try to consummate the marriage.Hazel had never given much thought to this part of the wedding day. She had no idea if this was part of the contract at all. Yet, Luca had promised, he would not do anything she did not want. She fiddled nervously with her fingers, wondering if she should simply take off her clothes herself and change into something simpler before going to bed, that way she would be asleep when he came.But on a second thought, she truly wanted to see what

Rays of sunlight drifted through the huge glass windows in the corner of he room, seeping through the open blinds and into Hazel's eyes. She stirred in her sleep, turning to the other side of the bed and her head flying across her shoulders as she did so. She grabbed a pillow mindlessly, straddling it between he hands and her thighs as she continued to sleep, snoring lightly.A knock came on the door. She groaned softly, trying to ignore it, as part of a dream that would go away. But it persisted, one more time, two more times... The third time, she groaned loudly, "come in!" She groaned in annoyance. The door opened, although her eyes were still closed, she was still sleepy."Good morning ma'am." A voice greeted.Her eyes snapped open suddenly and she turned to the person in the room. "Good morning." She greeted the servant standing at the door, her eyes feeling sore."Ma'am, breakfast has been served." The servant bowed lightly.She rubbed her face in confusion, yawning and stretc

Anna came around again, a few days after her last visit. She sat on the bed while Hazel paced the room. She crossed her arms, tapping her foot against the floor whenever she would pause and lean on her hip as she let out a pent up sting of complaints."I never see him around, I have barely caught a simple glimpse of him since the wedding day. It feels like I am going crazy... I cannot take any more of it." She complained, her voice strained and bitter. Anna watched her with sadness and understanding as she ate the plate of cake in her had. Hazel had the maids bring her some, it seemed she was finally getting used to her new life. Except the part where her husband was determined to avoid her existence."I understand how you feel, I mean I cannot image it." Anna said, swallowing "This mansion is big and beautiful and has a whole line of servants at your beck and call but if you stay cooped up this long, you could go crazy."" I wouldn't last more than a week in this state if it were

Hazel could barely believe herself as Anna pulled her to the mass of tightly packed bodies, the music banging in the air and the smell of liquor so dense it felt like she could almost taste it just by breathing it in. How Anna perceived this as fun, she was yet to understand. Bodies were grinding recklessly against each other on the dance floor, sharing bodily heat, and even saliva as some were already intensely making out as they rubbed against each other in the slightly darker corners of the club. Anna turned to her as she continued to pull her through the crowd. "Come on, we need to get you something to drink." She yelled out to her over the sound of the music.She could barely hear her, but most of the words drifted through her ears at least.Hazel frowned in response. "Something to drink? You mean water? I am not thirsty." She called back to her, yelling.She frowned, if they keep yelling back and forth like this, she might lose her voice before the night is over.Ann rolled h
